Questions

Before you buy

Standard or multi trunk?

Standard has one straight trunk and a rounded head, good for entries and rows. Multi trunk has three to five trunks and reads as a sculpture, good as a single focal tree.

Can a crane reach my backyard?

Send a photo of the access and the planting spot. We will tell you before you pay whether a crane, a skid steer or hand placement works.

How much water does it need?

Deep soak, then let the top few inches dry before watering again. Once established it is very drought tolerant.
